Chapter 212.

Chapter 212 The Basement

He first went to the chief steward with a stiff upper lip, hoping to change his brother’s job description.

But he didn’t find the chief steward.

The Chief Steward seemed to be everywhere, you could see him busy at any given time.

But when the Chief Steward is not needed, you will again find that you cannot find him wherever you are.

Some people have discussed it privately, saying that the Chief Steward’s mystery is second only to the Tower Master of the Sorcerer’s Tower.

This time, George wasn’t able to find the Chief Steward before nightfall.

It was nearing eight o’clock, and it was almost time to have to go back, before George gritted his teeth and decided to come and find Saul, who had once slept in the same bunkhouse as him, but was now a wizard’s apprentice.

However, when he followed his memories to the dormitory where Saul lived after he became a first level apprentice, he found that it had been turned into an empty dormitory.

“Brother,” David behind him asked timidly, “Do you really know Lord Sorcerer Apprentice?”

The little boy looked to the left and right, always feeling that the sorcerer apprentices who occasionally passed by looked so terrifying.

He would rather clean the corridors at night than stay here any longer.

David tugged at the hem of George’s coat, “Brother, let’s go.”

George was also in a state of great disappointment at this point.

Once ignorant, he had introduced himself as wanting to become the other party’s exclusive servant when Saul had just become a sorcerer’s apprentice.

However, he was reminded by the butler that a person of the lowest class and without any ability was not qualified to apply for an exclusive servant at all.

Unless Saul took the initiative to ask for it.

But the butler reminds George not to waste what little affection he once had on something irrelevant.

So George guarded this rare relationship, maintaining it carefully, only showing as much closeness as possible whenever he had the honor of seeing Saul, unlike the others.

However, he did not expect that when he was really ready to use this favor, he realized that he could not even find the other person.

George pulled his brother tightly and stood blankly in place, realizing clearly for the first time that the little relationship he thought he had was actually nothing.

Perhaps he had already consumed that relationship after two years of being taken care of by the butler on the strength of his former relationship with Saul’s left and right stores.

And the increasingly high status of Saul, has long been a figure beyond his reach.

“Brother ……” David realized that his brother’s state seemed to be a bit off, and shook his arm nervously.

George then snapped back to his senses and tried to look composed.

“It’s okay,” George repeated, “It’s okay, tonight, brother will accompany you.”

David was instantly much more at ease; in his eyes, his brother was quite a powerful being.

“Okay, brother!” The little boy jumped onto George’s back, and like when he was a child, he put his head against the back of his brother’s head.

George let his brother play around, but the smile on his face was worse than crying.

But he didn’t let his brother see his fear.

“It doesn’t have to be all bad.” He mumbled in his mind.

……

“Finally, a thought.”

After a few days of intense study and sorting out, Saul had finally figured out the principles of Flesh and Blood Sorcery.

It was a kind of sorcery that gave its own flesh and blood extremely strong activity and enhanced one’s physical qualities through constant devouring.

It also included many branch sorceries for maintaining the purity of one’s own bloodline, maintaining the purity of one’s spiritual body, and corresponding sorcerous body remodeling.

This series of sorceries made up the entire flesh and blood sorcery inheritance.

Fortunately, Saul didn’t need to study all the contents inside thoroughly, but just extracted the ones that were relevant and helpful to his spirit ester sorcery body transformation.

Moreover, for a small-scale sorcery family like the Bloodthorn family, the sorcery knowledge they researched basically wouldn’t be too dangerous, or else the small family wouldn’t be able to afford the loss of their clansmen.

So Saul, a second level apprentice, could also study the sorcery that their formal sorcerers studied.

In addition to studying flesh and blood sorcery, Saul also found time to specifically read through the death sorcerer’s diary’s in the Bloodthorn family and the series of conjectures and experiments that Ralph made in response to the diary.

Unfortunately, most of the content was not as useful as Saul thought it would be.

“It’s also true that if Bloodthorn really had an in-depth understanding of the diary, how could he let it fall into my hands.” Saul lay on the single cot in the second storage room, his hands resting behind his head, his eyes staring up at the deep ceiling above him.

“It seems that the Blood Rose Clan, from which the diary’s origin is recorded above, perished with the Drooping Hands Valley War, but there should still be heirs surviving, so if there is a chance in the future, I should still go and take a look at it.”

Saul turned his head to look at the diary on his left shoulder and sighed, “O old diary brother, if you were willing to be more proactive, I wouldn’t have to go through so much trouble to find out where you came from.”

However, the diary remained silent, with its usual high spirits
“Forget it, I’m dizzy from reading, so I won’t meditate tonight, have a good sleep and go back to the blue.”

Sol relaxed and closed his eyes, a pleasant smile still on his lips from the rare sleep.

But this time the sleep was not a good one.

Saul was awakened by a searing heat like a branding iron.

As soon as he awoke, he realized that he was not in the second vault.

What was even more frightening was that he was in an out-of-body state!
“What is this place? How did I come here?”

Saul was still floating in mid-air when he first woke up, and when he regained consciousness, he landed on the ground in one fell swoop due to the inertia of his mind.

But Saul, who had already had many out-of-body experiences with his soul, quickly calmed down.

He began to vigilantly observe his surroundings.

Right now, he was located in a very spacious room, and the lift was very high, it seemed to be five meters, all the floors of the Sorcerer’s Tower that Saul had been to didn’t have such a high lift.

Moving his eyes down, Saul saw three giants sleeping against each other in the corner of the room.

Each of them appeared to be over two meters tall and were so strong that their arms were twice as thick as Saul’s thighs.

But their heads were much smaller in comparison, and they looked very incongruous.

At that moment, a large door at the end of the room opened and two more giants walked in.

One of them, Saul still recognized, was the same burly man who spent his days huddled at the end of the corridor there on the second floor of the East Tower’s corpse room.

The other Saul had never seen before, and was probably also a servant of the Wizard Tower.

These alien servants did the lowest level of work, and also dangerous tasks that ordinary people could not access.

Seeing his acquaintance, Saul breathed a small sigh of relief, no matter what, he was still inside the Sorcerer’s Tower.

“What is this place?”

Saul walked over and saw two giants pushing a cart to a large machine.

Saul floated up to take a look.

The machine was somewhat like a meat grinder, and like the kind of machine that crushes scrap.

At that moment, a giant lifted a large box out of the car.

Saul recognized it again as the big box that had been responsible for carrying useless materials when he worked in the body room.

“So this is where garbage or contaminated materials are disposed of …… That’s considered the Wizard Tower basement?”

If that was the case, the first floor of the East Tower where Saul’s body was should be right above his head.

“Could it be that I fell asleep, had my soul go out of my body, and then fell straight out of my bed into the basement?” Saul thought with some tears and laughter.

At this time, one of the giants had already dumped everything in the big box into the “meat grinder”, while the other giant walked to the front of the “meat grinder”, and turned the handle with both arms bulging with force.

The handle turned, driving the gears inside the machine, and the top blade of the meat grinder began to run.

“Boom boom boom–“

The first giant poured in a box of stuff, and the bones and meat rubbed against the blade’s serrated teeth, making a sometimes-crisp, sometimes-sticky sound.

When the crushing was almost done, the giant switched to the second large box and continued to dump it in.

Not intending to watch from here, Saul looked up at the ceiling, wondering if he should continue walking up from where he had just been and go straight back to the first floor of the East Tower.

But at that moment, the roaring “meat grinder” suddenly stopped.

Saul looked down, and suddenly realized that at the top of the saw teeth, there was a round thing rolling.

It was a human head whose skin had been ground to a bloody pulp.

Plus more!
